Thenandal Studios limited had been celebrating the success of “ Mersal Click to look into! >> Read More... ” with “ Vijay As they always say, "it runs in the blood", the sa >> Read More... .” The company is getting ready to release “Iravaakaalam” by SJ Surya. Balaji Athamanathan, the co-director of Iravaakaalam complained that Thenandal hadn’t yet paid him the remuneration for Iravaakaalam. He posted it on his Facebook and here is the Post:

“Respected Thaenanadaal Studio Limited,

Since you are more eager to make your previously produced movie 'Mersal' a pride of Tamil Cinema, When are you planning to give me back the money you owe me and the money you owe to all the workers sir?

You might not know me sir. How could you? I am Balaji Athmanathan and I co-directed the movie 'Iravaakaalam' and like hundreds of people who worked in that movie even I am not paid yet sir.

In the end stages of shoot your managers asked me money and I gave my money from my savings to finish the shoot off. And please dont start with the renumeration because its almost an year since I got paid. And please do know I gave salary to the direction team to keep their spirits up. Again with my own savings money.

I believe you have a team browsing even now to find what all the "film festivals" happenning around the globe to register Mersal movie and make Tamil Cinema more prouder and empowered. But if you are planning to visit that country for that festival please know that, it is the money you owe me and the workers in which you are travelling.

Oh my god !! Happy to be a part of 'Pride of Tamil Cinema' sir. And sir when my wife asked what I am doing with an empty plate on my hands I said I am eating. Silly girl got confused and asked how can you eat without food. Dont worry sir she did not understand I was eating Pride. And when my landlord asked this month's rent I just texted him back 'PRIDE'. I hope he understands.

So sir, when you are done making Tamil Cinema more prouder than it already is, give me a call and I will come and collect my money sir. I hope I will live to see that day. If not, please pass that money to my grandkids sir. Thank you!
